That's more than a simple shift in consumer preferences.

It's a massive trend in fintech that could push the best financial stocks even higher...

That was the first thing that came to mind last week as the tech heavy Nasdaq dropped roughly 7% and Apple saw $180 billion erased from its market valuation on Thursday, the most any U.S.

company has ever lost in a single trading day.

Focusing on the finish line is important not just in sports but also the stock market.

While the tech selloff hammered markets over the last week, it is important to look at the bigger picture and look at the move as a healthy pullback for a bull market.

Why Elastic Stock Could Be the Next Google

By , Director of Technology Investing Research, Money Morning • @alexkagin -

Can you imagine life without search?

Before the internet you had to go to an encyclopedia, visit a library, or phone a friend and not even be sure if you got the right answer.
